I signed up that day. Maybe my PF is different since it's in the south I dunno.
I personally don't do those. You do t have too, you realize that yeah?
People were doing squats and bench in these super Smith like machines that let the bar move in all directions.
Don't come at me with that horseshit STABILIZER MUSCLES HURRRRR
That shit is 100% myth.

I only go there as a joke with my friend sometimes

Not only are most smith machines not completely 90 degree verticle (which fucks your form)
But the mechanism in which they move takes weight off your back.
Ur not actually squating or beching in a smith machine

for 10$ a month that sounds super comfy and nice, all those machines, and weights, space etc. just for $10 a month? spewin
He might be referring to the Jones machine, which allows forward and backward motion as well. They're better than Smith but it's still not the same. They've got that weird quality to them where they seem to conserve extra momentum from your movements

It's actually pretty nice, but I go free because my GF has a pass. I mostly do cardio and fake db bench stuff with the dumbbells
Jonathan Perez
Dude come on, I'm sure you could find a gym that maybe costs a bit extra, but comes with a fucking bench with barbells. Jesus Christ.
Dominic Kelly
I agree with not having to do deadlifts, after all only fat ass virgins squat and deadlift. But no bench? Are you a bitch?
Alexander Moore
I am, they had like 4 or 5 of those.
I mean, you can make believe what you want about me all you want, it doesn't make it true. Hey you lift ham for reps and have a 2inch penis. See how stupid it is to make up stuff about people?
Logan Garcia
You can bench in the Jones machine, or dumbbell press, or use 3 different isolation machines to replace bench.
Try using your head instead of being a freeweight parroting puppet.
Christopher White
dumbell press is objectively superior in every way and they clearly have those in Op's pic.
Logan Clark
Good luck benching heavy with dumbbells. Good way to snap your arm up.
